The current version of RadRibbonBar for WPF/Silverlight prevents you from hiding the Title Bar element.
However, you can work this limitation around quite easily. Please follow the instructions below:
  • Hide the application button, the quick access toolbar, the application name and the title:
     
    <telerikRibbonBar:RadRibbonBar
        Title=""
        ApplicationName=""
        QuickAccessToolBarPosition="NotHosted"
        ApplicationButtonVisibility="Collapsed"
     
    you will still have the space occupied:
     
     
  • Adjust the top margin of the RibbonBar control in order to remove the title bar element:
     
    <telerikRibbonBar:RadRibbonBar
        Title=""
        ApplicationName=""
        QuickAccessToolBarPosition="NotHosted"
        ApplicationButtonVisibility="Collapsed"
        Margin="0,-27,0,0"
     
    Note: for the default theme (Office Black) the value of 27 is quite appropriate:
     


Attached you can find an example solution where this technique is demonstrated both for WPF and Silverlight.
